The major consists of 12 courses of 36 credits. In compiling these credits, students may include two 200-level courses, and they may include two creative writing courses.

There are two required courses:

  21:350:308  Foundations of Literary Study (3)

 

  21:350:321  Survey of English Literature (3)


In choosing their other courses,students need to meet the following breadth requirements:
